Last week I looked at the Prodrive P2 which was based on a Subaru R1 with Impreza WRC running gear.
The Subaru Impreza P1 (Prodrive One) is a limited edition of just 1000 models based on the Impreza WRX.
The power of the AWD flat four turbo P1 was boosted from 218 hp to 280 hp.
The front and rear spoiler designs are credited to Peter Stevens who was responsible for the latter Prodrive P2.
The P1 was the result of a collaboration between Subaru Technica International (STi) the racing department of Subaru and Prodrive who ran the Subaru WRC rally campaign.
When the car was launched in 1999 just 500 units were envisaged for the UK market only however demand was so high that production ceased with the 1000th P1.
My thanks to the Pistonhead who brought this UK Spec only P1 along to the Sunday Service at the BMW plant back in January.
Hope you have enjoyed UK Limited Edition of ' Gettin' a lil' psycho on tyres', and that you'll join me again tomorrow. Don't forget to come back now !
That would get me to work early every day.
